The originals are called Kellem Grips or simply Kellems, but there are
various clones around.
I have found them at Crescent Electric (not in every US state, but
locations all over the place), also at Kendall Electric, which is in MI
and IN only. I am assuming that any electrical wholesaler will have them
or will be able to order them, but you are unlikely to find them at
Lowe's or Home Despot.
The Wireman stocks some sizes:
